How do i solve this?
If it helps i think its B. from how i did it but i don't think i worked it out right
X/4 + 1= -6
A.2
B.-4
C.-22
D.-28
X/4 + 1= -6
x/4 = -7
x = -28
Begin by subtracting 1 from each side.
x/4 = -7
then multiply both sides by 4 to get
x = -28
To solve the equation X/4 + 1 = -6, we need to isolate the variable X.
Step 1: Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation to get rid of the "+1":
X/4 = -6 - 1
Simplifying the right side:
X/4 = -7
Step 2: Multiply both sides of the equation by 4 to eliminate the fraction (since we want to get rid of the "/4" from X):
4 * (X/4) = 4 * (-7)
Simplifying:
X = -28
So, the solution to the equation X/4 + 1 = -6 is X = -28. Therefore, the correct answer choice is D. -28.
